Many around here didn't heed my warnings of a year and a half or so ago. I noted that the main DC characters- Batman, Wonder Woman, Superman - are bulletproof and that the DC universe resonates with the public. Proof of this is that when WB released BAD DC movies, like last year's Batman v Superman, and Suicide Squad, they still did $330m DOM and $800m WW.

 

In contrast, Marvel makes GOOD movies like Ant-Man and Dr. Strange and they don't do as well. 

 

When WB releases GOOD movies, like this year's Wonder Woman and the 2012 and 2008 Batman movies, they make $400 - $500m DOM.

 

Vast underestimation of the DC Universe haunts this place, and Justice League is going to slam it home.  Coco doesn't stand a chance.

 

 

You also said Dory under $200M.

Had The Star not looked like donkey shit, I could’ve had more faith in it. The concept on paper might have worked.

 

 

we get it, you talk about The Star a lot.

The Star will hurt Coco, duh. Don't underestimate the power of Oprah Winfrey in the once-in-a-lifetime role of Deborah the Camel.

Not to mention the religious crowd who will see it multiple times.

Steve is to Disney what Kevin is to WB 😜

Duration: 127 mins (from Cinépolis, Mexico's biggest cinema chain)

That's including the short so it's actually 106 minutes for Coco and 21 mins for the short

Let's face it: Justice League is going to mop the floor with Coco.

 

Not what i was hoping would happen, but it's a fact.

 

 

is there even a direct comparison between them? 200 would be good and 250 great, for Coco while even 350 might be considered a bit underwhelming for JL. apart from releasing close to each other there is nothing comparable between these two movies.

"Close to each other" makes them ipso fatso comparable, as movies released close to each other will impact each other's box office.

 

The very fact that you agree that Justice League will rout Coco is a testament to how wrong so many have been around here about the strength of the DC Universe brand.

"Wipe the floor with" is such a phony, pseudodramatic expression when relating to movie box office. They're not "battling" each other. Coco will succeed or fail on its own merits regardless of how well Justice League performs.

There's only so much movie money out there. If people see movie X, it will impact on movie Y's take. This is elementary, which is precisely why studios space their movies out the way they do.

 

Amazing that this is even being debated? I think it must be wishful thinking that even if JL is making $150m in a week that this won't impact Coco box office?

Catching Fire didn't impact Frozen and those 2 shared much more of a demographic than JL and Coco does.

Why even argue with him? The entire basis of his predictions is basically "fuck Disney."

So like Kevin with WB.

Inside Out could have been a real hit if only it weren't for Jurassic World

Kevin is stanning for Coco too though but which curse will be stronger.

Both of their curses will cancel out, leaving Coco with a meager $200M gross.

I don't think someone with predictions as historically bad as yours is in a position to be astonished at someone questioning your viewpoints.

 

Yes, I've made some bad ones too but at least I fully acknowledge that they were made with my heart more than my head. If you really just like wishing for Disney to fail we'd all save a ton of grief if you just admitted it.
